“Where size counts.”



“A very pleasant surprise to find such a fabulous cottage. Don't be fooled by the exterior looks as inside is fantastic. A huge room combining a lounge, dining area and kitchen area. Two very comfortable bedrooms that are very well equipped and the master bedroom being en-suite shower room. Another bathroom next to second bedroom. A little difficult to find but all in all, a really nice place with a safe enclosed,back garden which is mainly decking.Sensible & courteous parking is needed by all residents! Ramp down to door entry would be advantages for the disabled.”

“Cosy but contempory”



“The cottage was alot larger than it looks on the internet and beautifully presented. Everything you could want was provided, the beds and sofas were very comfy - it was particulaly good not to have leather sofas which we have always found cold! We liked the fact that the twin room was as luxurious as the double which is not always case in holiday properties. Our small dog with 'houdini' tendancies loved the suntrap walled garden, as did we all. We enjoyed our stay immensely it is only the fact that we now have 2 dogs that we will sadly not be able to return. Briar was in the perfect place to tour the whole of Cornwall, a great place to stay.”

“Fabulous Cottage”



“Cottage was in excellent order, clean and well equipped. The location was great, nice and quiet just how we like it, but not too far away from the tourist trail.+
The outside space was well kept amd private and great for meals al fresco.
I can't fault this cottage at all and thoroughly recommend staying there.”

“Quiet, relaxing and well located for touring.”

“We booked an autumnal break in early October, to recharge our batteries, just my husband and I and our beloved pet Ted, a very well behaved Jack Russell.
The accommodation was good, plenty of space, although the sofas were very grubby and in dire need of a good clean. I blame this upon previous guests who perhaps weren't so fastidious about keeping their pets off the furniture, as the sofas dis smell very 'doggy'. Personally when hiring a cottage where the owners are kind enough to accept pets, we take along clean decorators 'drop cloths' and cover the sofas just in case the dog decides to sneek up there during the night.
The cottage itself was extremely clean, with plenty of cooking utensils available. The bedrooms were large, the master having an en-suite. The main lounge/dining/kitchen area was open plan, with central heating throughout the property. The main area having a log burning stove for use during really cod weather. We were lucky enough not to need either as the weather was kind to us.
There were double glass doors that opened out onto a lovely garden space. The owners ask if hirers would kindly water the tubs and baskets, just to maintain the colourful display. There is a deck area, and at the bottom of the garden a small barbecue area. The who of the garden being securely fenced in to prevent escaping toddlers or pets.
We didn't have the pleasure of meeting the owners or their representatives during our stay, which was a pity.
Although the cottages back onto a quarry, we weren't disturbed by noise or excess traffic. We enjoyed visiting parts of Cornwall we haven't visited for a few years, and would certainly re-book this property again.”

“Relaxing and enjoyable”



“The cottage was lovely although we arrived to find rather a l;ot of flies. The amenities were great, the 'walled garden' was excellent - so peaceful to sit in on a sunny evening. The cottage had a very relaxing feel and we felt a home. The location was very good - far enmough away from the hutsle yet close enough to get to see things.”

Customer reviews

“A lovely spacious barn, well equipped and nicely furnished. Very convenient location. It was perfect for our needs.”

Mrs Corcoran, Stourbridge, January 2015

“We have stayed at Briar before, the property is beautifully laid out and decorated. The garden is a particular plus as the dog loved it and were completely safe. The location is quiet and peaceful, lovely after a busy day out and it is also so convenient for both coasts. The property is very welcoming.”

“Everything about this cottage was good. It was clean, well equipped and everything provided worked well. It's in a very quiet spot, yet within easy reach of everywhere. I thoroughly recommend it.”

Mr Devincenzi, Sevenoaks, June 2014

“Genuinely loved staying at this cottage, it was a home-from-home, warm and inviting after a wet cold day out with a lovely woodburning fire. Central location to everything you could possibly want to see. Highly recommend the Eden project and Lost gardens of Heligan. Both very dog friendly.”

Miss Smith, Waltham Cross, March 2014

“Cottage was very warm and welcoming. We've stayed at a few cottages in the area and Briar is now at the top of our list for cottages to revisit.”

Mrs Storer, London, February 2014

“The cottage was centrally situated for access to a number of attractions and places of interest. We were pleasantly surprised how large it was, and clean and comfortable.”

Mr Willson, Camberley, October 2013

Mrs Noakes, Peterborough, October 2013

“The accommodation and location of the property were excellent. The little enclosed garden was ideal. Would definitely recommend this property to all family and friends, and will be visiting again ourselves.”
